DRAWING FOR WOMEN.
Experience of a Woman in Gaining q
Beautiful Accomplishment.

Experience of a Woman in Gaining a
Beautiful Accomplishment.
From the Chicago Herald.
l can substantiate Ruskin's argument
from actual experience. He tells us how he
has 'never met with a person who could
not learn to draw" and that no one ''need
fear to be unable to get on for want of
special talent" and any one willing to give
these $50 hours of careful practice, ''dispos-
ing of them in whatever way convenient,
will be able to draw faithfully whatever is
wished, and to have good Judgment, up to
a certain point, of other peoples work "
Good Judgment Think of the value to
any one, no matter what his or her pursuit
in the world of being a good art critic.
That alone is worth the time. You will
have to join no class, seek no master, need
not stay in stutfy room to work, but may
sit out in the beautiful day, under some old
trees or shady veranda, only being strong
enough to plod on steadily at the work.
letting no dreamy accord with nature steal
over you. l have found such hours pass
more swiftly because a congenial
companion started with me in the
race, and that the momentsloSt by
the ''wagging of our tongues were
more than made up by the spirit of rivalry
which possessed us and the value of two
critical opinions. We learned of old that
1.-TWO heads are better than one, though one
be cabbage head.n
Can any other accomplishment be
obtainedsso quickly and so pleasantly In
Ruskin's own words / reply: ''To acquire
even ordinary command over the keys ola
piano it takes three or four years of
practice, giving three or four hours day."
That means two or three or four thousand
hours. / remember once being enticed by
an advertisement something like this:
Guitar lessons given; SIP a term; tune
taught at every lesson took the bait and
was taught twenty tunes in twenty lessons
for SIP But it was one thing to he taught
and another to learn. To have learned to
play rapidly and correctly those twenty
tunes in the ten weeks any person of ordi-
nary ability must have practiced six hours

1t is Fatiguing,

You can generally size man up by the
fit of his clothes, and if there is anything
that will make one tired, oh! SO tired, it is
the sight of a man whose garments hang on
him like "a shirt on handspike. Nothing
is easier than to get decently fitted-if you
